Current Collector for Fuel Cell, Fuel Cell Stack, Fuel Cell System, and Method of Manufacturing Fuel Cell System

Abstract

In order to suppress an increase in electric resistance when retrieving electric power collected from a fuel cell stack, a current collector for a fuel cell is provided. The current collector includes a current collecting portion for collecting electric power generated by the fuel cell, and a terminal portion for outputting the power collected by the current collecting portion. A bus bar is attached to the terminal portion. The terminal portion includes a terminal portion main body, electrically connected with the current collecting portion, a first threaded part fixed to the terminal portion main body, a second threaded part for threadedly engaging with the first threaded part to fix one end of the bus bar to the terminal portion, and a protruded portion provided in the same surface as a surface where the first threaded part of the terminal portion main body is provided. The protruded portion is disposed at a position where the protruded portion contacts the bus bar to stop a rotation of the terminal portion main body accompanying fastening of the second threaded part, when the one end of the bus bar is fixed to the terminal portion in a state where the other end of the bus bar is fixed to another instrument.
